Re: OT - Clothing ID tags

[Jason Greenwood]

Yes, but the tag is as fine "as a grain of rice" so they could embed it 
almost anywhere. It may not stay just in the tag. In fact, they might 
start putting multiple tags in clothing...in that case am I going to 
have to get a "tag-detector" to find them all??

I will vote with my dollars and buy non-tagged clothing. BUT what 
happens when it becomes the industry standard?? I suppose I'll have to 
have my clothes custom made then....


I own a leatherman - fully capable of cutting a label out of a shirt.

(kind-of defeats the purpose of buying labels though)
